Projects

Cohesive Europe/ Empowering Youth for decent work

“Empowering youth for decent work” addresses current challenges young people face within the labour market. It focuses on unemployed youth working in short-term, unstable jobs as well as already employed  young people. The aim of the project is to empower youth in their transition to the labour market and strengthen their position within the precarious labour market. The main approachof the project will be to address this issue with correlation to European policies that influence labour market and legislations.

The project consortium of partners has been established on the basis of different organisations in order to offer spaces and new approaches towards working with the youth. The project will establish new and strengthen present actors within the field with the aim to empower them to assist with the transition from education to the labour market.

Partners: Mladi Plus (Slovenia), UGT-Juventud Spanish National trade union confederation (Spain)

The project is co-financed by Erasmus + Programme of the European Commission.

Why Out of the Box International

The seemingly ever-lasting depression of European economies has shaken the very foundations of many European societies. The shear rate of unemployment in Europe and the omnipresent environmental crisis coupled with the often frustratingly slow process of decision making in the EU, are calling for civil society actors to step in and fill the void.

In the aftermath of the 2008. economic crisis, the apprehension of falling under the spell of apathy of economic depression across the continent has not been easy to shake off. However, pinpointing the culprits for the current state of affairs on any particular EU decision maker is not the answer. Nonetheless, the fact remains that the current approach to the economic and environmental crisis hasn’t yet shown the affected citizens the light at the end of the tunnel.

As representatives of the civil society we feel the need to make our voice heard in the midst of the current debate on economic crisis. Being a social enterprise we offer new and feasible ideas in education and community work, creative cross-sectorial cooperation among different actors and strong networking coalitions to turn these dire economic challenges into possibilities through social entrepreneurship initiatives which aim at benefiting wide range of citizens, particularly vulnerable groups and those affected by the economic crisis.

Social entrepreneurship is a simple concept that has been put into practice by civil society actors for the benefit of a specific social group or people, and this is precisely what we want: to create projects and initiatives with fresh ideas in different policies, educational programs or tools, support businesses, empower cultural initiatives and offer different solutions to individuals, corporate bodies, everybody who believe that we can have more Creative, Innovative and Cohesive Europe.
